I have friends and family in Russia and their attitude to Putin ranges from active ignorance to hatred.

Everyone agrees that he serves as a bad example to follow.

So yes, first hand knowledge may fail you.

They're probably in Moscow or something. The vast majority of my folks aren't. Moscow and Saint Petersburg are only 10% of Russia's population - they don't matter much when it comes to electing the president.
